Tips

March 7, 2024

Since 1974, the province of (Flemish) Brabant has owned the 120 hectare Vinne. In 2000 it was decided to transform the area into a lake again. Work started in 2004; the poplars were cleared and the groundwater level rose because drainage was largely stopped. The entire area is ideal for migratory birds.

The provincial domain Het Vinne is located close to the center of Zoutleeuw. It is a unique location because here you will find the only natural inland lake in Flanders. The domain is accessible every day from sunrise to sunset. There is a range of possibilities for walking, playing and discovering nature: a playground, play forest, sensory experience path, bee village, herb garden, visitor center, adventurous hiking trails and a bicycle rental service. There are 2 all terrain wheelchairs and slings available to visitors free of charge.

The Vinne is located on the territory of the merged municipality of Zoutleeuw, south of the hamlet of Ossenweg, just within the province of Flemish Brabant. To the east of it lies Limburg's Duras, also an anchorage. On the cabinet map of the Ferraris (1770-1778), the area - then still a large lake - was intersected from north to south by the border between the Duchy of Brabant and the Prince-Bishopric of Liège.
